Afghanistan

US forces in Afghanistan said that a key ISIS commander
was killed in a raid in the eastern area
of Nangarhar province. Khetab Emir, who was known by multiple
names, facilitated high-profile attacks and supplied Daesh fighters with
weapons and materials to make explosives.

The death of the emir is a major blow to the ISIS
outfit in Afghanistan as it goes a long way to impede the spread and expansion
of the terrorist group as it faces annihilation in Iraq and Syria. Also, the
death of the emir is key in protecting the innocents in Afghanistan which faces
threats from various terror organizations.

Daesh fighters have developed a stronghold in the
province on Afghanistan’s eastern border with Pakistan and have become one of
the country’s most dangerous militant groups. The hardline militant group’s local
affiliate, known as Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP) after an old name
for the region that includes Afghanistan, has been active since 2015, fighting
the Taliban as well as Afghan and foreign forces.
